Old Black
Old Black is the name given to the main electric guitar used by rock musician Neil Young. Most of Young's electric guitar parts were recorded on "Old Black," though some were played on Gretsch White Falcons or on an orange Gretsch Chet Atkins. Young acquired Old Black in 1969 through a trade with one-time Buffalo Springfield collaborator Jim Messina,〔http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/ProductSpotlight/GearAndInstruments/guitars-with-names-514/〕 who received one of Young's orange Gretsch guitars (Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins) in exchange. ==Appearance and customization== Old Black is a 1953 (or possibly a 1952, age unknown ) Gibson Les Paul Goldtop painted black.〔http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/ProductSpotlight/GearAndInstruments/guitars-with-names-514/〕 It has been customized quite considerably. After the guitar had been left at a guitar repair store, the original bridge pickup was replaced by a Gretsch Dynasonic single-coil pickup. Eventually a humbucker pickup from a Gibson Firebird guitar replaced the Dynasonic. The neck pickup has always been the original P-90 pickup, but it is covered by a hand fitted aluminum P-90 cover. The guitar was roughly resprayed to jet black, and received a new Tune-o-matic bridge (not available when the guitar was produced) and a B-7 model Bigsby vibrato tailpiece. It would presumably also have had a white plastic pickguard at some point, as was standard on 1953 Goldtops. Old Black is notable for its metal hardware, including an aluminum backing plates. The pick guard is chrome-on-brass/bronze. The tuners have been replaced with Schaller M-6 tuning keys, and the rest of the hardware is mostly nickel-plated. The headstock displays a partially painted-over mother-of-pearl inlay, sometimes referred to as a "wheat stack", rather than the typical "Les Paul Model" silk screened logo, along with single-ply binding around the headstock, although it has fallen off.
